Wye Dream - Wye River Beach House - 200 metres to beach!
Affordable Family Friendly Accommodation & just 15 mins. along the Great Ocean Road from Lorne. Wye Dream is a classic older style beach house (it used to be the Surf Life Saving Club Bunkhouse), we love it & so will you, with open plan living area/kitchen, a wood fire and two decks both with views of the waves.
Comfortable lounge with Plasma TV & toy box for the kids. Upstairs are two bedrooms with bush and sea views. The larger bedroom has a queen bed and a set of bunks & trundle bed, and the second bedroom has a queen size bed.
Everything is within easy walking distance, only a 100 metres to the beach and The General Store (great coffee)and a further 100 metres to the Wye River Pub. You can leave the car in the driveway and forget about parking problems.
Great for a family or two couples. Leave the busy city behind and relax in this spacious 2 bedroom beach house. Take a deep breath watch the waves roll in, look for Koalas in the trees & remember what life is really about !

Great location just up from the beach and the general store. We had many visitors to the deck and garden: cockatoos, parrots, fairy wrens, and kangaroos were all welcomed. The woodstove took the edge off the cool nights and mornings, and it was easy to use with plenty of dry wook supplied. Well supplied kitchen!
Excellent location. Property was clean and comfortable. A little dated and needs a bit of maintenance, but was perfectly fine for our purposes. Would stay again.

Beautiful property in great location, easy walking distance to the gorgeous beach, cafe & Pub. House has everything you need and two lovely balconies. We were even visited by a family of Kookaburras! Hosts were very helpful. Would love to come back sometime.

Thanks again, Michelle & Matthew

Great house, great location
Our stay at Wye Dream was more like a winter getaway than a spring one due to the unseasonably cold weather, therefore the wood heater and recliner sofas were very welcome! The wood heater warmed the whole house making it nice and cosy. We loved the proximity to the beach and general store. Matthew was very helpful prior to our stay, giving us detailed directions due to the temporary road closures. Thank you!

Thanks Gabrielle, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Wye Dream. Sorry the weather was not better for you, agreed the stoked fire makes all the difference to a warm & cosy break. We look forward to having you stay with us again in the future. Cheers, M & M
We loved our stay at Wye Dream! The property is exceptionally clean and well positioned near the General Store and Pub. 15 minutes to Lorne. Not much privacy though as properties are all around and if you don't have the blinds down, if people are staying in the property right in front can see right into the house. Also, an air conditioner would be a great addition for when it is a hot day. Definitely would stay again though :)

Margie & Alan treated Wye Dream as their own and even used the fireplace over a very warm summer weekend. We would highly recommend them to other hosts.

Fabulous
This is a perfect place for a family stay. The house is wonderfully clean and well appointed. It is so comfortable and the location is ideal. A short walk to a gorgeous beach and just across the road from the beach, a fantastic cafe. We loved going to sleep by the sound of the waves. The kids were thrilled with the visiting kookaburras and parrots and we even had a visit from a koala one day! Wye River is idyllic - so wild and beautiful. We could not recommend this place more highly to anyone wanting a relaxing and peaceful holiday. Thank you so much Matthew and Michelle!

Thank-you Lara & Paul for your fantastic review! We are so pleased you found us & our little piece of paradise! We are so happy you found the house so well set up - as a family of 6 we too love getting away to Wye Dream to have some down time & recharge the batteries! Massive thanks too for how well you looked after the house & returned it after your stay, our boys were so impressed at the level of care & respect given by your family to our lil beach house, so greatly appreciated. We look forward to you staying with us again! Thanks again, Michelle & Matthew
It was so lovely to walk in and feel at home. There was heaps of space to make our family so relaxed & comfortable. Loved that we could be at the beach in just over a minute bare foot walk. Only wish our stay was longer.
Lovely comfortable house with great deck to enjoy the Seaview & breeze, with all that you could possibly need. Great location with easy walk to beach, walking track, cafe & pub. Very relaxing.
We loved our stay. We made lots of use of the fire place/oven, it goes really well. There are sea views and lots of sea sounds (waves). Large modern kitchen, large veranda with large Weber BBQ and generally heaps of space. Beach, bush walking and modern fancy pub are just a minutes walk away.
